Physical therapy should not be just exercise. We combine therapeutic exercise with "hands-on" orthopedic manual physiotherapy to combat a wide range of musculoskeletal problems. We provide a manual therapy approach to physical therapy with clinicians trained in hands-on/manual techniques to address a wide variety of orthopedic and musculoskeletal conditions.
We specialize in a wide range of rehabilitative services to help patients accomplish their goals. At Direct PhysioTherapy we strive to be the leaders in orthopedic manual physical therapy. Our Clinicians are Doctors of Physical Therapy (DPT) with intent to deliver advanced manual therapy techniques consisting of soft tissue mobilization, joint mobilizations, spinal manipulation, neural mobilizations and an array of other hands-on techniques.

Services
Our goal is to change the way the public views and receives physical therapy. We believe in providing 1 on 1 manual physical therapy in addition to exercise in order to give patients the best possible rehabilitative outcome. You will not be shared amongst clinicians and passed around aimlessly as so many other large practices do.
The vast majority of physical therapy clinics address postoperative rehabilitation soley with an exercise program and no skilled manual therapy. In order to optimize your outcomes after your surgery, we also incorporate a hands on, 1 on 1, treatment consisting of skilled joint mobilizations directed at regaining full range of motion and joint health.
Below we have listed our frequently asked questions to give you some answers! However, If you can't find what you are looking for feel free to ask us a question yourself! You only need a script if you have Medicare. Otherwise, you can come see us directly and we can treat you for up to 30 days or 10 visits whichever comes first.

Been working with Mason for just about 6 - 8 weeks now. He's been the catalyst for curing chronic issues I've had with my neck, shoulders, and leg I've had for 10+ years. I highly recommend him if you want to invest in reaching your goals around reduction or elimination of chronic musculoskeletal issues. I finally feel like I've been able to dig myself out of the hole with the treatment he's provided. Also of you have persistent muscle knots, do the dry needling. It'll be uncomfortable potentially, but my lord does it help get you back to baseline. There are not many people who are certified for

I recently had my left knee replaced and Mason provided me with out patient therapy beginning 2 weeks after surgery. After 19 sessions I am extremely satisfied with both the process and results achieved working at Direct Physiotherapy under the care of Mason Tupta. Mason designed a therapy program that with patient commitment enabled me to achieve results that exceeded my expectations. Mason is very knowledgeable and explains the logic behind each facet of the program and its importance in attaining the desired result. He creates a very positive environment. Each session was challenging but enjoyable

I brought my 100 year old mother for relief from shoulder pain so significant that she could barely raise her arm and was using one hand to lift and move her sore arm. It had been getting worse over time for 2 years. Her doctor said she’d just have to live with it. What a difference Mason made! After just 10 visits she could completely raise her arm above her shoulder. To maintain her progress all she has to do is continue with her exercises once a day. She has continued them and now, 3 weeks later, her progress is easily holding She is so, so happy. My sister, a registered nurse, took my mother

I’ve had chronic back pain for years due to scoliosis. I’ve tried everything, including multiple attempts at physical therapy, but I’ve never been able to see any improvement. Until I found Mason! My experience with him was excellent. He was hands-on with me each session, with no other overlapping clients, something I’ve never experienced with other therapists. The treatment plan, from the exercises I do at home to soft tissue treatment to dry needling, all have helped me see an improvement in my pain. I’ll definitely go back to him if I need help in the future and I would recommend him

To all the dancers and athletes who read this review - I can 100% say Mason is the therapist you want to trust! My body has been my tool to sustain my career; however, the everyday wear does take a toll. Although I am no longer performing ,there is no reason for me not to continue to have the flexibility and strength after years of overuse. Mason's knowledge, ability to identify the problem area, vary the treatments and give you the attention you deserve is real! This is not the place where you learn an exercise and then are left to complete the series on your own. He will give you the attention

I cannot say enough about how dedicated Dr. Mason Tupta is to getting the best results for each patient with his hands-on approach to Physical Therapy. I had tried other PT practices, but their assembly line approach was not helping my lower back / hip pain. I was amazed at how different Direct Physiotherapy was - the 1 on 1 treatments and the techniques not used by others made an enormous difference in relieving my pain and greatly increasing my range of motion. In addition to spinal manipulation and intense, targeted massage, he is one of very few PTs licensed to do “dry needling” - similar

In early July of 2020 I began to have a sharp nagging pain from my right hip down my leg. I never had this before and it was so bad that I couldn't sleep and was walking around the house half the night trying to find relief. The next day a mailer came advertising Direct PhysioTherapy here in Mt. Lebanon, PA. I was immediately motivated to call and made an appointment for the day after. Mason was extremely helpful and began the therapy for my condition. He is very focused and I believe he actually physically exerted himself more than I had to as we tackled the problem together. About seven sessions
